Hi, Andrew. I just went through a Log4Cxx rebuild myself with setting up a new
build server last week, so I can appreciate the hurdle that can be.
I would recommend use the Ant build procedure, and checking out from the SVN
trunk. That procedure seemed to work out best for me. Also, completely abandon
doing anything with the VS projects themselves. That, IMHO, is just a time-suck
and I haven’t gotten it to reliably work for various VS versions or
architectures. One thing of note – I found the trunk wouldn’t compile/link
complete with the current version of APR and APR-Util. I had to use APR 1.5.1
and APR-Util 1.5.3 for Windows. There are some undefined references in the
Win32 build of one of those. I don’t remember which. Thorsten, have you or any
of the contributors seen something similar? If you see similar things, I have
copies of the win32 src archives for those versions. I can probably get those
to you somehow – I didn’t see them on the Apache site. Just email me directly.
Here are some snippets of my vendors build batch script. Hopefully you’ll get
some value out of it:
rem ## copy the apr and apr-util packages here
xcopy /Y ..\apr\apr-1.5.1-win32-src.zip .
7z x apr-1.5.1-win32-src.zip > nul
rename apr-1.5.1 apr
xcopy /Y ..\apr-util\apr-util-1.5.3-win32-src.zip .
7z x apr-util-1.5.3-win32-src.zip > nul
rename apr-util-1.5.3 apr-util
IF NOT DEFINED VisualStudioVersion call
"%VS110COMNTOOLS%\..\..\VC\vcvarsall.bat" AMD64
rem go to the trunk checkout – defined/checked out above
cd %_log4cxx%
ant -lib ..\ant-cp-addons -lib ..\misc-cp-addons -Dfind=false
-Ddebug=true build
ant -lib ..\ant-cp-addons -lib ..\misc-cp-addons -Dfind=false
-Ddebug=false build
xcopy src\main\include\* ..\distbuild\include /E /Y /K /Q /C
del ..\distbuild\include\Makefile*
copy target\debug\shared\log4cxx.dll
..\distbuild\lib\log4cxxd.dll
copy target\debug\shared\log4cxx.exp
..\distbuild\lib\log4cxxd.exp
copy target\debug\shared\log4cxx.lib
..\distbuild\lib\log4cxxd.lib
copy target\release\shared\log4cxx.dll ..\distbuild\lib
copy target\release\shared\log4cxx.exp ..\distbuild\lib
copy target\release\shared\log4cxx.lib ..\distbuild\lib
cd ..\..
The distbuild stuff breaks out into include and lib subdirectories, which allow
easy additions to project files for including the header files, and finding the
import libs.
The VisualStudioVersion line will likely have to be modified to your version of
Visual Studio. We use 2012 (11.0) for our builds, so that will likely be
different for you.
I do have “ant-cp-addons” and “misc-cp-addons” which put some of the needed
jars on the ant classpath. In ant-cp-addons, I have the ant-contrib-1.0b3.jar
and cpptasks.jar files. In misc-cp-addons, I have the Xerces-J jars and
log4j.1.2.17.jar – I’m not certain if these are 100% necessary but kept those
in there from building cpptasks.jar.
Hopefully that is helpful. I use the above stuff to build a X64 version on both
Win32 and Win64 systems. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for you email.
I've tried for several hours to build the package but find it to be an
impossible task.

You need to setup log4cxx properly as well.

You shouldn't start with log4cxx 0.10.0 anymore, checkout a current
trunk using SVN or download it using your browser. While not
officially released yet, the current trunk contains a lot of bug
fixes.

This is most likely the root cause, log4cxx can't work properly
without that header. You haven't setup your building environment for
log4cxx properly and should first read the docs on how to build the
lib. If your already done so, you either made something wrong or the
instructions are not clear enough or whatever, so feel free to tell us
and we might fix things.
